In the cave of lost souls

In the cave of lost souls
verse
I tried religion but it didn’t take.
The devil had hold of my soul.
He introduced me to whiskey and drugs
and i spiraled out of control.
pre chorus
Into the darkness, into the void.
into the depths of despair.
A place where people go off to die.
and nobody knows or cares.
chorus 2x
In the asylum, in the asylum;
in the cave of lost souls.
verse
I tried therapy but it didn’t work.
The demons had cast a dark spell.
They seduced me with women and cocaine.
welcomed me through the gates of hell.
pre chorus
Into the darkness,into the void.
Into the depths of dispair.
A place where people go off to die and nobody knows or cares.
chorus
In the asylum,in the asylum;
in the cave of lost souls.
bridge
Where the darkness closes in on you
and you struggle to even breathe.

    This song is in need of a third verse, not because it actually needs one but because I liked the first two so much!

  • "cave of lost souls" is a great title! Very evocative.

    I like those opening lines too:

    I tried religion but it didn’t take.

    The devil had hold of my soul.

    It's a dark and moody picture, which seems appropriate given the theme.
